In preparation for the coming school year, I’m working on several ideas that involve computer technology. Like it or not, computers aren’t going away. I know technology can be scary, but I’ve made these activities as straightforward and easy to use as possible.
First, I’m working on organizing all the links Sarah and I have found that pertain to Social Studies. This is an on-going project, it will change throughout the year. But you will have access to a Portaportal webpage where all the Social Studies links are organized with a brief description, and by SOL.
Next, I’m working on a Historyspace project. It will be easier to show you rather than try to explain it. But I am very excited about this project idea.
And lastly, I will introduce you to blogs. Whether you use only the blogs Sarah and I have set up, or choose to set up a blog for your classroom, I hope you will find they are easy to use and manage, and are a great means of communication.
I know I’ll see some of you in a couple of weeks, and most of you in a month. But I’m looking forward to introducing these ideas to you.
